南宗頓教最上大乘摩訶般若波羅蜜經六祖惠能大師於韶州大梵寺施法壇經 1.82

1.82

大師說偈已了，遂告門人曰：「汝等好住，今共汝別，吾去以後，莫作世情悲泣，而受人弔問錢帛，著孝衣，即非聖法，非我弟子。如吾在日一種，一時端坐，但無動無靜，無生無滅，無去無來，無是無非，無住，坦然寂靜，即是大道。吾去以後，但依法修行，共吾在日一種；吾若在世，汝違教法，吾住無益。」大師云此語已，夜至三更，奄然遷化。大師春秋七十有六。

When the Master had finished speaking the verses, he then told his disciples: "Farewell, all of you! I now take leave of you. After I am gone, do not weep with worldly emotions, nor receive condolences, money, and silks from others, nor wear mourning clothes; that would not be the noble Dharma and you would not be my disciples. Just as when I was alive, at all times sit upright: merely be without movement and without stillness, without birth and without death, without going and without coming, without right and without wrong, non-abiding, serenely quiescent—that is the Great Path. After I am gone, simply cultivate according to the Dharma, just as when I was alive. If I were in the world and you violated the teaching of the Dharma, my staying would be of no benefit." After the Master spoke these words, at the third watch of the night, he suddenly passed away. The Master was seventy-six years of age.
